Whats the get real comment about
Other DD competitors have asked about the use of such things and the rules about standard timing are set out in black and white.
I have tried to answer some of the questions asked
I have known for sometime riders are using them but they do so at the risk of somebody protesting them.
I was told at the start of the season we would be having a dyno at one round and I still live in hope that we will and if such units did give an advantage hopefully the dyno operator would pick up on it.
Next year the rules may include wording such as the use of AL-9000 igniters are not allowed, that would make it less of a gray area.
But are you honestly telling me all the people that have invested in these units are not doing so in the hope to gain an advantage no matter how small, otherwise why do they bother as there have been plenty of standard units for sale on Ebay over throughout this year
Having never tried them on either a standard engine or a tuned up one I have no personal knowledge of what they offer and am very sceptical of them doing anything worthwhile for a standard engine, but as its a topic that other brought up I may do some asking around in case a protest is lodged
